There is a man named Andrew Olmsted who fought as a soldier, I suppose in Iraq. He kept a blog at andrewolmsted.com for the past 5 years. To be honest, I dont know much about it, as I stumbled on its final post today, but its touching. In the event of Andrew’s death, he put his trust in a friend to upload a final post he had written previously. Im sad to say that post went up on Jan 4th, 2008.
Now, being the only post I have read from him, I can say Andrew was a smart guy. He writes well, and has a sense of style and humor. I suggest you read it as its a nice introduction to a man who had a grasp on the potential outcome of his life and completely accepted it. I respect that a lot.
